One hundred and sixty-five steps of the times
Shopping and chatting, everyone gradually became familiar, and after the night was dark, Xiao Ruxun announced the start of the grand reception banquet, everyone ate and drank together, although it was not as good as the previous New Year, but it also made the officers and soldiers of the Navy Division a little surprised, they didn't expect that Admiral Xiao would give them such a good welcome banquet. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info
The only fly in the ointment is that there is no wine in their opinion, and the favorite thing for these arrogant soldiers is wine, but everyone looks at Admiral Xiao and never mentions wine or drinking, those army generals and soldiers don't drink either, North Koreans don't drink either, and they are not embarrassed to mention it.
Later, a few fools boldly stepped forward to ask Xiao Ruxun if he had any wine, and Xiao Ruxun replied with a smile: "Except for New Year's Day and the celebration banquet for the complete defeat of the Japanese invaders, alcohol is not allowed in the army in peacetime. ”
The plain words were like a yin wind blowing towards them, making them tremble from the bottom of their hearts to the epidermis, Xiao Ruxun said it with a smile when he said this, but it made them suddenly remember that Xiao Ruxun is a general who kills people without blinking, and he has tens of thousands of heads under his command, and he must not mind accepting one of them.
Chen Lan and Deng Zilong were also awe-inspiring in their hearts, remembering that none of the generals in this army were not older than Xiao Ruxun, but they were obedient to him, which was enough to see Xiao Ruxun's methods.
Half relaxed and half cautiously enjoyed the reception banquet, after the lunch break, Xiao Ruxun decided to convene a military meeting, gathered the generals of the navy, and the military judge announced to them the content of the military law of the army, how to count the violation of military law, how to punish, how to calculate meritorious service, how to calculate rewards, etc., Xiao Ruxun knew very well that this aspect must be said in advance, not mixed with sand, otherwise there will definitely be problems.
After announcing the military law, Xiao Ruxun asked Li Sunsin to participate in the naval army's combat meeting with him, and officially announced the strategic plan to capture Tsushima Island and cut off the supply lines of the Japanese invaders, which greatly lifted the spirits of the naval generals and realized that this was a vicious battle at sea, and there would definitely be a lot of gains.
"Previously, the Japanese tried to transport supplies from Jeolla Province and Gyeongsang Province, but due to the bloody battle of General Yi Sunsin, the Japanese had to abandon the transportation and supply plan of Jeolla Province and could only take the Gyeongsang Road Road, which greatly reduced the speed of the Japanese army's march and combat capability, and if we further cut off the material supply route from Tsushima Island to the port of Busan, we could trap the Japanese in Busan."
Xiao Ruxun punched the location of Busan on the map.
"In the past, General Yi Sunsin tried to capture the port of Busan, but the traitors betrayed the plan and were ambushed by the Japanese invaders, so it was unsuccessful, but this time, we gathered the strength of 500 warships, and we must take Tsushima Island, and then attack the port of Busan, destroy the Japanese sailors, completely trap the Japanese in Busan, so that they cannot return to the country, and force them to surrender, and then, there are more things that need to be done by the sailors.
Therefore, this time, the governor is of great use to the naval division, whether the naval division wins or not, whether the naval division is sharp or not, will directly affect the victory or defeat of the army, and the governor will never allow any factor to affect the combat of the naval division. ”
Xiao Ruxun threw the stubble to Chen Luan.
Chen Ling nodded and began to talk about the composition of the sailors under his command.
"The last general commanded the sailors, composed of the Guangdong water camp and the Zhejiang Fujian water camp, most of them are lucky ships, the main ships are No. 1 and No. 2, the draft is one zhang and two feet, the No. 1 Fu ship is 500 materials, it is the largest warship, 17 ships, No. 2 Fu ship 400 materials, 63 ships, a total of 80 ships, the firearms carried are a large tribute one, a large sample of the Franc machine six, a bowl mouth gun three, a nozzle canister sixty, a bird gun ten, as well as rockets, fire bricks, powder barrels and knives, guns, bows and arrows, etc., the full number of soldiers is sixty-five.
No. 3 Fu Ship is a sentinel ship, mostly used for seeking the enemy and close combat, there are 100 ships; The No. 4 Fu ship is a Haicang ship, slightly smaller than the Dafu ship, with a draft of seven or eight feet, equipped with four large Buddha machines, three bowls, six bird guns, fifty nozzles, eighty smoke cans, ten artillery, fifty fire bricks, and two hundred rockets, with a full complement of 51 people, and there are 50 ships.
There is also a small ship named Cangshan ship in the Haicang ship, the crew is 30, the hull is smaller, high above the water, the draft is five feet, there is a oar, the wind is smooth, the sail is smooth, the wind is swadding, this ship is light and dexterous, it is mainly used to chase the enemy and take the head, it is mostly used for close combat, there are 50 ships.
No. 5 Fu ship for the black ship, this ship is the most expensive ship in our sailors, the black ship was originally a unique kind of ship in Dongguan, Guangdong, made of iron pear wood, its board thickness is seven inches, its length is ten zhang, its width is three zhang strange, its hard as iron, touch it is broken, rush it is broken, far can support sixty or seventy years, near can withstand fifty years, extremely strong, can even resist the shells fired by the Fran cannon, only one thing is not good, that is, this kind of ship is quite expensive, a ship needs seven or eight hundred taels of silver!
There are only 10 ships of this kind in our naval division, which are specially used for ramming Japanese ships, regardless of whether they are cannons or bird guns, they cannot help our black ships, and there are seven centipede ships imitating the Francosis man, and there are more than 200 other fireships of various types, all of which are used for collision, a total of 500 ships, and 10,679 officers and men of the naval division. ”
After hearing this, Yi Sunsin was full of excitement, and said: "The ship of the heavenly soldiers is so majestic and mighty, the ships of the Japanese are invincible, the ships of the Japanese are so light and small, the draft is shallow, and the collision of our board house boat and the turtle boat can still be broken, not to mention the great fortune ship of the heavenly soldiers, one ship can reach the three ships of the Japanese Invaders, how can the Japanese invaders compete with me?" ”
When Chen Lan heard this, he was slightly proud in his heart, thinking to himself, how can you and other small countries be compared to my Heavenly Empire?
In a blink of an eye, Chen Luan, who hadn't been happy for long, saw that Xiao Ruxun's face was not good, frowning, and he didn't know what he was thinking, his heart was half cold, and he thought that Xiao Ruxun was not satisfied with his fleet, so he asked a little unsteadily: "What other questions does the Admiral have?" ”
Xiao Ruxun sighed and asked, "When Mr. Chen described it, did he mention the bowl mouth?" ”
"Bowl mouth? Oh, yes? The second monk Chen Xuan was puzzled: "What questions does the Admiral have?" ”
Xiao Ruxun asked: "This bowl of mouth guns, if the governor is not mistaken, there are things in the earliest Mengyuan period, Taizu has already equipped this bowl of mouth guns when he founded the country, more than two hundred years, the infantry army basically no longer uses this bowl of mouth guns, and the sailor is still using the bowl mouth guns?" Why not retire and replace? ”
"Huh?"
Chen Luan looked confused, and the generals also looked puzzled, the admiral's brows were tightly knit for this?
"The bowl mouth gun is short, the medicine is less, the range is short, the power is small, it is basically useless, it is far inferior to the Francophone machine, why not eliminate it? Firearms from 200 years ago are still in use today, isn't it complacent? Let's take these bowls down, don't use them anymore, I'll give you a hundred Franc machines and fifty Franc machines from the army, and you will equip them on the ship.
Don't use outdated things anymore, especially when there are better things, I heard that during the Jiajing period, the Ming sailor had fought with the sailor of the Franco, and the bowl of the gun and the fireboat tactics were used at that time, although the battle was won, but it was also woken up by the Francophone people with the Francophone gun, which introduced the Francophone gun, since it was useless, it was not as good as the Francophone gun, then simply don't use it again, the governor will ask the Song Jingluo Gong to write to the imperial court, and completely stop the production of the bowl. ”
Chen Luan and Deng Zilong, as well as the generals of the water division, looked at each other.
